Demographic factors such as race, socioeconomic status, gender identity, area of residence, native language, and cultural barriers have an effect on outcomes in cancer care. To identify unmet needs, challenges, and opportunities in achieving high-quality, patient-centered cancer care for all, NCCN conducted a yearlong environmental scan, which involved stakeholder meetings with patients and patient advocacy groups to discuss these topics. The findings from this scan informed the corresponding NCCN Patient Advocacy Summit: Advocating for Equity in Cancer Care, held in Washington, DC, on December 10, 2018. In addition to the many patient advocacy groups, the summit featured a number of other stakeholders that advocate for equity in cancer care. This article encapsulates the findings of the environmental scan and the discussion from the NCCN Patient Advocacy Summit.
人口统计学因素，如种族、社会经济地位、性别认同、居住区域、母语和文化障碍，都会对癌症治疗的结果产生影响。为了确定在为所有人提供高质量、以患者为中心的癌症护理方面存在的未满足的需求、挑战和机遇，NCCN 进行了为期一年的环境扫描，其中包括与患者和患者权益倡导团体举行利益相关者会议，讨论这些话题。这项扫描的结果为相应的 NCCN 患者权益倡导峰会提供了信息：2018 年 12 月 10 日在华盛顿特区举行的“倡导癌症护理中的公平”峰会。除了许多患者权益倡导团体外，峰会还邀请了许多其他倡导癌症护理公平的利益相关者。本文总结了环境扫描的结果以及 NCCN 患者权益倡导峰会的讨论内容。
